SKAGEN Denmark @ FW2012 Watch Collection

SKAGEN Denmark best known for its Danish craftsmanship and ultra-slim design. This FW2012 collection, Skagen Denmark introduces the exclusive Hiromichi Konno watch collection, the signature White Label and premium Black Label collection to your stylish wardrobe.

This special edition collection designed by famed Japanese industrial designer Hiromichi Konno. In white, black and brown color tones, they exemplify the true fusion of Danish minimalism and Japanese precision. Konno expresses that, "The most essential aspect of my design is that the watch would look light, soft and elegant, making it delightful and comfortable to wear every day." Swarovski Elements Crystals perfectly accent the dial and case, and a genuine Italian leather strap adds the finishing flourish to a watch that, as Konno put it, “was created to weave the beauty of contrast and harmony together into a minimal design.”
  
  
  
Konno is the first external designer collaboration from Skagen Denmark. The original Hiromichi Konno watches launched exclusively in Asia Pacific last year. Konno first gained international acclaim for the unique and functional design of his RIN chair, designed for art-as-furniture collective, Fritz Hansen.

Epitomizing the elements of Danish design of lightweight, contemporary styling in terms of the seamless and remarkably slim brushed-finishing case, which houses a three-hand date movement. A heavy gauge mesh strap, the most recognized look of Skagen Denmark, completes the clean yet attentively designed timepiece.
